Sometimes, I have long lists of things I need to do & at the end of the day if I havenāt completed the tasks, Iām incredibly hard on myself. If I donāt do it because I forgot, thatās on me & I should definitely be tough on myself. However, if itās because of my health, I shouldnāt be so critical. Easier said than done. I am slowly trying to learn that I cannot control everything & I will not always complete my ālistsā. I get angry with myself & my body, but I know thatās going to ultimately be counterproductive. Today, I had a long list of things to do, mostly phone calls. I think the bike ride yesterday pushed me a little over my limits as Iāve been going nonstop for weeks now. The way Iāve felt today, has made me not even feel like making phone calls. It is such a simple, menial task, but when youāre insanely nauseous & fatigued, making phone calls isnāt exactly appealing. So, today, I did what NEEDED to be done. I made it to what is potentially Landonās new school to discuss our options with finishing his 3rd grade year. I was able to make Wynnās GI appointment AND I OFFICIALLY HAVE AN APPOINTMENT WITH MY NEW GI TOMORROW MORNING! That alone is easily the best part of the day. š Iām working on hydrating & nourishing my body as I work on doing a little laundry & housework every so often through the day. I canāt just do nothing. š¤·š»āāļø Admittedly, Iāve been neglecting my own care the last week due to how busy & chaotic everything has been. Things are beginning to slow & we are settling in our new city & with that, we are getting back into our daily routine which includes me making sure I get my nutrition & hydration as ordered. Life is goooooood. ā¤ļø #AllDemPipes
